I was also at the Freepers yipping ground today and one guy had a whole list
of links to articles detailing the love fest between SH and AQ. Most of the
links were right back to Freeper articles, though.

Hey thanks, I never heard of a freeper before, but google has.
Here’s the top link from a list on the yipping ground.

Its like treating the various newspapers in Don’s other post (which for the
most part seem to recycle government media sources or are heavy on opinion as

the sources lets you support whatever you feel like, pretty much regardless of
the underlying facts. It gives you a nice warm glow to know that your own

right, but it doesn’t address or improve anything. Indeed, it prevents others
from addressing or improving anything and simply preserves blissful ignorance.

Whatever. I simply dug up the link because Dave’s original post
mentioned it and then immediately dismissed it with a somewhat misleading
comment. With that link you and others are now free to interpret it as
you wish.
Now that’s cool.
